🌿 Use Fairy Doors Outdoors 

Our fairy doors are made from polymer clay, which has waterproof properties, they are suited for indoor use, but they can also be placed in outdoor areas such as:

• porches or balconies

• Fairy gardens (tucked under shelter from rain)

• Among potted plants or under awnings

Just keep them safe from moisture and direct sun to preserve their charm.
